Reflective vest

[ ] Emily has created a draft training slideshow. We should review.

We need to do some radio testing.

If we get them back in the next two weeks, we’ll schedule the first training at our next meeting.

CPR/First Aid Class

Six hours of training, could be split into two 3-hour sessions.

Fire district has an in-house trainer. They have offered to do a Lyons Prepared training in Late May/early June.

Steering committe members prefer two shorter sessions.

Household/individual preparedness education project

We were asked by a community member to come to their house and help them know what they need to be adequately prepared. Maybe we should use this as an opportunity to do something that we can share with all our neighborhoods.

Two kinds: shelter in place and grab-and-go.

Grab-and-go can be a bag or a list that is organized by 5-minute and 30-minute lists.

Wilderness Institute has three videos on their website related to this.
